How to overcome driving anxiety with 14 driving anxiety tips.

After 3.5 years of freeway phobia (yes, this video includes tips for how to overcome driving anxiety and fear of driving on freeways because that was my specific driving phobia, driving on freeways), I was able to overcome driving anxiety by doing these 14 things -- and am currently 10,500 miles (In Boulder, CO at the time of posting) into a solo USA road trip!!

If my brain can be totally rewired to no longer have driving anxiety, I believe your brain can overcome driving anxiety or fear of driving on freeways too.

So practice these how to overcome driving anxiety tools and leave any Qs for me in the comments.
